Bliss
Life really is quite blissful at the moment!
Molly is affectionate, loving and very tactile. She loves cleaning herself and will clean me if she gets half a chance. We sleep 2gether and I simply find that I don't like 2 b away from her 4 long periods of time. Cat Mother loves this as it means I stick around home more and she does't have 2 worry about me as much.
Cat Mother has done 1 over night stay and got Adam from upstairs 2 come in and spend some time w/ us but thankfully she does not seem 2 want 2 make a habit of this.
Cat mother has decided that Molly shall essentially be a house cat until October when all the kitchen work will b finished. She has been debating about whether Molly shud remain as a house cat 4 ever but this wud b blatant cruelty as Molly is already showing signs that she wishes 2 explore the big wide world outside.
We luv Jessica's bed and can't thank her enuf 4 providing this. When will we c her again?
Whilst the kitchen is being done, Molly and I will b in a Cattery. I've only been 2 the 1 and I guess as these things go it's pretty cool. Cat mother herself went and checked it out b4 she put Bongo and I in there earlier this year and Pets 2 The Vets r cool 2. The contractors will move in and there's going 2 b a good couple of weeks of mayhem! Glad we won't b around 2 witness it!
The Persian Tan Number AKA Foxy is still hounding me and I'm not sure what to do about it. Yesterday he was so quick that I cudn't make it 2 the cat flap in time and only just made it into the jungle. Cat Mother came rushing out 2 protect me and carried me indoors...I'd had enuf 2 b honest and needed some TLC.
Molly's alright 4 a girl. She'll get involved in the odd fight. Just gotta ensure it's always me that wins, is all.
She also scratches quite a bit and cat mother sorted that right out by giving her a shot of Bongo's Advocate flea/worming capsule.

Molly continued
She really is a pretty little thing.
She's a lilac Siamese with a tabby tail which is always flayed out as if she is running scared.
She neadles as well which is something Bongo and I have never done. That is 2 say that when she is given attention she moves her front paws up and down gently sometimes extending her paws like as if she is tip to-ing. It is very sweet.
She is quick 2 purr as well as I am.
Her fur is soft, maybe even softer than mine and unbelievably she makes me look big and there's not much of me, I can tell u.
Food has moved under the chimney breast in the kitchen w/ extras being placed in front of the dishwasher. She likes wet food which I'm not fond of but I don't like 2 b left out so I shall give it another try.
She arrived w/ these amazing biscuits so Cat Mother is going 2 get in touch w/ her previous owner 2 find out what they r.
Tuesday saw a return 2 the bedroom, thank goodness. Admittedly there was a crash and a cup smashed but that was more about Cat Mother changing bad habits and learning 2 put things away when she has finished w/ them instead of leaving things lying around....sigh...

Day 2 - Molly
The alarm went off @ 04:00 4 Cat Mother 2 do her 2 hour 10 km walk and instead she transferred herself 2 the sofa so I cud lie on her tummy until 06:00 when she got up and got ready 4 work.
At all times her mind was ticking 2 c how she was going 2 leave us. After all, 4 all she knew, we cud kill each other by the time she got back. There was also the cat flap business 2 think about. I lost my magnet ages ago and in any case the cat flap has been de-activated in the hope that brother Bongo will come back but of course with all the neighbourhood cats showing such an interest in Molly Cat Mother was worried about the state she wud find Molly in if she didn't do something 2 protect her latest fur baby.
Cat Mother can b surprisingly resourceful when presented with a problem and here's what she did. She prepared a 2nd helping of food and placed it in the lounge. She made sure Molly was comfortable and then locked her in the kitchen and bathroom. This meant I had free range of the lounge and the bedroom and cud get out the cat flap. At lunch time she rang Pets Corner @ Hove Lagoon and asked if they cud deliver 3 cat flap magnets if she paid over the phone. She arrived home and was delighted 2 find us both home. She got rid of the divide and allowed us 2 get near 1 another and get 2 know each other. And do u know what? I think there is potential in this budding relationship but it's early days yet.
@ around 20:00 the cat magnets arrived. I was fitted w/ 1 and the magnetised cat flap was re-activated. Home wud once again become my domain and the need 4 spraying, stop.! I notice Cat Mother has started closing the bedroom door again when she leaves 4 work.
At bed time she prepared a bed on the sofa and I slept w/ her there. Molly cried 4 short periods of time periodically throughout the night but I think it's going 2 b alright.

Getting Molly
Well, this is all about cat mother.
She arranged with Cecil and Tom that they would cat sit for me on Saturday 4th July. They arrived at around 12 and Cat Mother was still blogging/waiting on the Virgin Media Guy (the phone hadn't been working all week)/Packing.
Miraculously, she got the 12:47 to London Victoria and then made her way to Euston to the Fast Ticket machine and was well in time for the 14:46 to Nuneaton equipped with overnight bag including laptop and iPod, cat basket and attached trolley.
At 16:16 Big Bruv picked her up from Nuneaton station and the evening pretty much passed uneventfully. It was lovely to be fed, to see the children and to watch Monkey Magic and relax.
At 3am, Cat Mother awoke from Jessica's bedroom and forced herself to stay in bed until 4 when she took Hamish and went for her 2 hour 10km walk. She returned at 6am and breakfasted and showered and together with Big Bruv, departed for Humberside at 8:05am
They arrived at Molly's house in Humberside having had one stop over at 10:45. Big Bruv sat in the car whilst Cat Mother went in with the basket. By all accounts Molly was mothering kittens and her teats were engorged however she had been neutered some 3 weeks previous.
Cat mother did the business, got Molly's papers and came away with Molly in basket, papers, cat litter (pine wood based) and some biscuits.
On the way home, they stopped of at Pets Homes in Nuneaton where Cat Mother bought toys, tag, collar and the like.
Upon arriving at Nuneaton, Molly was put in the garden and tied to the lawn mower to stop escaping. The kiddies were all enthralled with her and she seemed very affectionate.
Sunday dinner came and went and then laptop business (Office 2007) had to be done by Big Bruv. After Roast Lamb; Peaches, jelly and ice-cream, cat mother finally left the LJBs at 4:45 and caught the 16:47 to London Euston arriving there at 18:47. Then it was into a taxi from there to London Victoria as she couldn't bear to put her on the tube and then having missed the home train, a train from London Victoria to Brighton at 19:36 and finally a train from Brighton to home at 20:48. Molly arrived home at 21:00.
Course, cat mother was in a right state and put Molly on a lead tied to the swing in the garden whilst she watered it. Honey, Adelaide and myself were all mesmerized with the new addition which cat mother found rather funny.
I circled around her and she snarled at ME! as if she was the Queen of the castle!
Fortunately, Cat Mother tied her to the bathroom radiator on a very long leash which gave her control of the bathroom and the kitchen and I was able to continue to come and go through the cat flap in the lounge and the bedroom. As Cat Mother made dinner and drinks in the kitchen I occasionally went into the kitchen and sat on my stool where Cat Mother took great trouble to give me loads of strokes so I wouldn't feel left out.
Cat Mother had a shower and washed her hair and Marmite from next door landed on the ledge and as Cat Mother held Molly in her arms, Marmite just looked on totally fascinated and seemed to lick his lips suggesting that she might be an exciting new toy to play with. Well! Cat Mother wasn't having any of that and resolved to get Cat Flap magnets as soon as possible to stop the neighbourhood cats from coming in and causing any upset whilst she is away at work.
22:30 came and went and Cat Mother was tired and went to go to bed in the bedroom and then Molly started playing up. She has a very loud Miaow, not unlike a child crying and so Cat Mother moved a Thai Cushion into the kitchen and slept with Molly on her tummy until 0400 when she was due to get up and go for a walk.

The Beginning is Bingo
This has started where another blog has finished. Although this feels heartless, it is also necessary in terms of categorising the information stored on the blogs I create.
Today, I go to Nuneaton, and then with Big Bruv travel to Humberside to collect Molly
I can only hope they will be the best of friends....and if Bongo comes back...the more the merrier
